Bridgerton’s Golda Rosheuvel and Black Panther actor Letitia Wright will star in the world premiere of Superwoman Schema, a powerful new play by Emma Dennis-Edwards.

Directed by outgoing Bush Theatre Artistic Director Lynette Linton, the production will run at the Bush Theatre from 6 September to 25 October 2025.

Superwoman Schema follows Joyce and her daughter Erica as they navigate life after the death of their family matriarch. Joyce, believing she has paved a better path for Erica, is forced to confront the possibility that history is repeating itself. Despite therapy, journaling, and self-reflection, Erica begins to question whether breaking generational cycles is even possible.

The play explores themes of familial expectation, inherited trauma, and self-discovery, providing a deeply moving narrative about identity and resilience.

Letitia Wright’s theatre credits include The Convert at the Young Vic Theatre and Eclipsed at the Gate Theatre.

Golda Rosheuvel, best known for her portrayal of Queen Charlotte in Netflix’s Bridgerton and its prequel Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story, has an extensive stage career. Her theatre credits include Rare Earth Mettle (Royal Court Theatre), The American Clock, A Christmas Carol and Elektra (Old Vic), Romeo and Juliet (Shakespeare’s Globe), The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, Wonderland and South Pacific (National Theatre).

Joining Linton in the creative team are, Set and Costume Designer Alex Berry, Lighting Designer Jai Morjaria, Sound Designer Max Pappenheim, and Movement Director Shelley Maxwell. Composer XANA, Video Designer Gino Green, and Vocal Coach Hazel Holder also contribute to the immersive theatrical experience, with dramaturgical support from Deirdre O’Halloran.

Superwoman Schema runs from 6 September to 25 October 2025 at Bush Theatre, London. Performances will take place Monday to Saturday at 7:30 pm, with additional matinees on select Wednesdays and Saturdays.

The Bush Theatre has announced its latest season, and the final under outgoing Artistic Director Lynette Linton.
